Webkinz

Webkinz World may have just celebrated its tenth anniversary, but GANZ has further plans in store for Webkinz World members. A new secret project, titled "Webkinz World X", will be previewed over the coming months and is expected to release this Summer. GANZ has announced that this project will bring "a huge leap forward in the look and feel of the game" while "keeping everything you love" still within Webkinz World. The first preview for Webkinz X was the image included on the left, which is to "play an important part of the new Webkinz X." Stay tuned to Webkinz Newz throughout the coming weeks, as Ganz has promised more sneak peeks and information in the near future.

It is uncertain at this time what kind, and how much of Webkinz World, will be changed. Although this change may be unwelcome by some long term players, especially with so much uncertanty about the changes and direction of this beloved game, it should also bring members some comfort that GANZ appears committed to improving and updating Webkinz World. A welcomed change to the online world of gaming, and what one could consider to be a great sign for a game who has just entered its eleventh year of existence.

Congratulations to WI Member TNVOLS on their adoption of the Sock Elephant, and Teal Zebra. Caboodle can be seen pictured here with their Pet Specific Item, the Knitted Hammock. The Pet Specific Food for this pet is Sweet Savannah Tea. Additionally, Chapman the Teal Zebra is also pictured below with their Pet Specific Item the Wild Outdoor Tent. The Teal Zebra's Pet Specific Food is the Tasty Trail Mix.

The Sock Elephant and Teal Zebra are part of the eStore's pre-sale promotion of 2015 Summer and Autumnpets. The Pre-sale is a limited time offer, ending January 4th (2015), and is open to all Webkinz members. The pets will return in 2015, and offered at regular eStore pricing, but it is unknown at what specific time they will be offered.

If you are thinking about adopting either one of these pets, or any other pre-sale pet, remember that you only have a limited time to do so before the sale ends!

Santakinz has returned to the club house once again, and with his return marks the launch of the Santakinz Photo Gallery Project. Each year, members on WI work together to update the Photo Gallery with Santakinz photos with individual Webkinz Pets. The Gallery is one of many projects taken on throughout the year to help create a database of Webkinz information and guides for our members via the WIki.

There are many pets still missing from the gallery, and you can help by simply visiting Santakinz and sharing the picture for everyone to see. For those looking to participate more information can be found on the Santakinz Photo Project thread, or by visiting our WIki HERE.

Thanks to all of our members for their continued work on this unique project!

The eStore pre-sale is open until January 4th (2015), if you are interested in owning this pet, or any other upcoming 2015 pet, you may want to purchase it shortly as they will not return until the summer or fall of 2015.

Webkinz Insider Member Arieschic didn't have to travel to far away galaxies to find a super special Webkinz White Cosmic Bear to be the first to adopt. As luck would have it she happened to stumble into Juniper, her perfect new friend that has the same birthday as her right in the Webkinz Estore.

This virtual only pet is available now at the Webkinz Estore. Juniper looks very comfy sitting upon her PSI Cosmic Couch and is probably daydreaming of eating a PSF Far Out Fudge.

Congratulations to Webkinz Insider Member Pugtony3 on their adoption of Rosie the Rosy Satin Guinea Pig. This November Pet is only available with the purchase of a 1 year Deluxe Upgrade through the Webkinz Estore.

Rosie is seen in her picture sitting in front of her Pet Specific Item the Satin Curtains. When the Rosy Satin Guinea Pig is hungry it loves to dine upon a bowl of its Pet Specific Food Silky Smooth Sorbet.

Congratulations to WebkinzInsider Member wylady for being the first to solve the Webkinz recipe for the Vegan Veggie Wrap. Harmony likes posing by the beautiful trophy they won for being first to make this recipe.

During the Daisy Doe event, you could win a food items and now it turns out if you mix the foods together in the sandwich maker you can create a tasty treat! The 3 ingredients in this recipe are the Tofu Burger, Crunchy Kale Chips, and Farm Fresh Pasta Salad. Remember these foods were all only available during the Daisy Doe event and may or may not return to Webkinz World in the future.

Congratulations to WebkinzInsider member chels101 on the adoption of Snugglebug the Webkinz Ladybug. This tiny pet is having a blast hanging out in her Webkinz garden room that chels101 created for her.

The Webkinz Ladybug comes with a PSI Sweet Spotted Wardrobe. When the Ladybug is hungry it would love a super small dish of PSF Crunchy Leaf Coleslaw.

Let's extend a Halloween Welcome and Congratulations to WebkinzInsider member vanberk on the adoption of ToT (Trick or Treat) the Webkinz Sweet Tooth Tiger. In these pictures provided by vanberk you can see ToT enjoying a ride in his train and dreaming about all the fun he is going to have.
